USB 3.0 support in Proxmox 3.0? {2.6.32-20-pve}

[dlasher]

On this thread ( http://forum.proxmox.com/threads/10884-USB-3-Compatibility-for-Proxmox-2-1 ) I tried to get several devices working under 2.x, and wasn't able to.

I'm looking for a list of supported devices for USB3 under Proxmox 3.0 {2.6.32-20-pve}

I looked under the kernel-headers, and there's no xhci, so I'm assuming I have to compile modules to get it to work?

any help would be appreciated.

Thought maybe it was my card, bought a new one today, StarTech PCI-e (2) port card. PEXUSB3S2

Machine boots, no problem noted until you try to plug in the first device, any device.. in this case it was a USB 2.0 hub.

Jun 20 19:36:59 pmx4 kernel: hub 7-0:1.0: cannot disable port 2 (err = -19)

I tried moving the PCI-E card to another slot, no change.

So now that's (2) different PCI-E cards, two different slots..Any device I connect whether it's USB 2.0 or 3.0, hub or endpoint device.

What's missing?

Based on threads like this one : http://askubuntu.com/questions/161862/nec-upd720200-usb-3-0-not-working-on-ubuntu-12-04

I'm trying firmware upgrade to card.. we'll see if it helps.

I was the one who posted the thread for proxmox 2.1 with USB 3. I have since upgraded to Proxmox 3 and the card still works at USB 3 speeds.
